ANDY FISHER 4
Wasn't helped out at all by his defenders for the three first-half goals. Didn't really do much wrong in possession in fairness, although he got away with an awful pass early in the second half.
FINLEY BURNS 4
Some brave moments on the ball, but he was clearly targeted by the Blades at times. Passing was a positive. A tough afternoon for the Man City loanee, though.
BEN CABANGO - Star Man 6
The pick of the bunch defensively. Some important clearances and interceptions to ensure the score wasn't even worse.
RYAN MANNING 5
A few decent balls forward from the back, but the Irishman couldn't really impact the attacking play. Calm at the back but caught out for Billy Sharp's goal.
CYRUS CHRISTIE 4
A frustrating showing from the Fulham loanee after Sunday's heroics. Didn't trouble the Sheffield United defence and was caught high up a few times, which put Burns under pressure.
FLYNN DOWNES 4
Made his share of tackles but couldn't influence attacking play as he'd have liked.
MATT GRIMES 4
Didn't threaten enough in attack and found the going tough in the middle of the park at times. Swansea needed so much more from their captain. Loose pass at the death summed up his understandable fatigue. Tough day.
JOEL LATIBEAUDIERE 4
Caught out for Swansea's opener and Billy Sharp easily had space on the same side of the pitch for the third goal. Unable to threaten in attack either. Tough return to the side.
OLIVIER NTCHAM 3
Had Swansea's only shot on target in the first-half but was guilty of slowing things down too often and was far too quiet in the Sheffield United half throughout. Described as a "passenger" by one broadcaster at Bramall Lane. Subbed.
JAMIE PATERSON 5
The most likely to create anything in the first-half, but he was abruptly stopped on more than one occasion. Had a tame shot saved in the second-half.
JOEL PIROE 5
Didn't get a sniff in the first-half. Worked his socks off after the restart to try to give Swansea fans something to cheer, but to no avail. Subbed.
Subs
Michael Obafemi (for Ntcham) - Worked hard to give his side some kind of outlet. Pressed well but didn't get any goalmouth action. 6
Korey Smith (for Piroe) - Too late to do anything. N/A
